Peavy 70 pitches...getting closer to that terrible bullpen...
He's in good shape. He can make 7 if he avoids trouble.
Why the hell did you foul that off Juan? It was a ball and there's a very slight chance that Kendall throws out Alexei with the way he's been throwing. My god his pitch recognition is terrible. How do you hit a hanging curveball into the ground?

Royals' announcers attributing our current problems to:
Low BA and low OPS
Poor defense
Poor BA w/ RISP
Spotty bullpen
They forgot spotty starting pitching.
It is kind of amusing we're second in homers and first in stolen bases on May 3rd. The Vegas odds against that eventuality would have been pretty darned high.
You'd think we'd be a league leader in OPS with all the home runs we're hitting.

blackhawks losing by the same score the sox are winning by already
Yeah, they just look overmatched.
I'll say this now, I don't want Peavy throwing 9 innings. His pitch count will end up being 130. You gotta save his arm given his past injury issues.

Peavy's starting to lose a bit of velocity now....89-93 MPH this inning on his FB.
He got it up to 94 on Kendall.
As long as he's around 92-94, he's fine.

At least he's not hitting in a position usually reserved for run producers. Or being paid the same salary as a great clubhouse guy who could have been had.
s***, we could have had Pods back for the money he's making.

No, Jones had a huge RBI single to LF earlier in the season, very clutch-y.
Can't remember the game, but I think there were 2 outs, too.
That was two weeks ago.
